Neighbourhoods

[Pamperqueen]

What is the thing you would most change about your neighbourhood? My younger sister is doing her dissertation on the modern neighbourhood and is looking for ideas if anyone woud like to help her out. What are the biggest problems that go unchanged? Is it crime, eyesore buildings, lack of services, lack of neighbourliness, lack of planning regulations? Any ideas gratefully accepted....

I like lots of things about the neighbourhood that I live in. I think the one thing I would change would be 'lack of pride'. Things like graffiti, youth issues, damage, dog poo, rubbish on the streets, etc - are all symptoms of a lack of pride in the area.

If you could get everyone to be proud of the area they live in then people would be more likely to protect it and look after it.

Not got a problem up here, at least not at the moment.

Probably the best thing for your sister to do is look at her own neighbourhood, and write about her perspective on it. Would most likely get a more passionate and in depth article then, I'm sure.

the amount of cats roaming about the place , its about time we had a nationwide kull of these verminous creatures

we slaughtered thousands of cows for merely having a cold yet these vile creatures spread disease indiscriminatly and get to live

also a nationwide kull on vandals woudl be nice too

the only thing i would change is for them to make more play areas for the kids

Lack of education.The kids and some parents can't read-learn and inwardly digest a simple sign that says NO BALL GAMES.
Rant over.

Oh yes and though I admit that no one is perfect I'm the closest you will ever get.
At every thing I do.
